no because we don't know that she was buying other people avs, just herself. so this gag does not work!!

Sorry, I'm the IK of the Seville thread, I can only change titles for those who do not want their own changed.

I've been trying to figure out whether I can change my own title for like five years now

I cannot probe Fritz. The button is there, but it goes to a "sorry this action is prohibited!" screen.

I also cannot edit his posts. Neither he, not vyelkin, nor Pragmatica have the same "revise!" button.

I feel like this might be because of previous lessons learned but I'm just spitballing here

Also: props to whomever set up the "edit other user's posts" screen for mods to have giant red text saying "THIS IS NOT YOUR POST" because I am not yet used to the new buttons and while I've seen plenty of "quote is not edit" mistakes, in attempting to quote TheSwizzler's post there I almost commited the first "edit is not quote" mistake I think I'd have seen

I think Seth was the straw that broke the camel's back on this one about a year ago. I was never a big fan of the idea but it seems like it's been helpful. :cheers:

Surprisingly no. That was Abraham.

Boniface was basically the Michael Corleone of Helldump until he suddenly disappeared because his wife/girlfriend caught him cybering with a girl goon.

I bought a Dr. Pepper Strawberries & Cream out of curiosity and it's really not as bad as I was expecting. But I doubt I'll buy it again tbh.

I have a bottle in my fridge but I am scared to try it. I think worse than it being bad would be if it was delicious and then it would go away and I would be sad.

It is pretty delicious, but doesn't overwhelm the cola either. A nice little strawberry milkshake aftertaste. It works out quite well imo!

Oh, also any mod that has been a mod longer than like a month is lying if they say that they haven't edited a post instead of quoting it. Especially if they are on the awful app or something.
